Yes, this feeling of "the body n soul re-awakening" described in my previous blog, continued. I know that for a fact because I have felt low/depressed/in turmoil several times over the past 2 weeks. Welcome back to the rollercoaster.
The weekend was great - a total orgy of eating and drinking. The momentum picked up slowly through Saturday - bowls of watermelon, mugs of beer. The evening, our quartet gathered at the latest watering hole (aptly titled Oblivion!) and made merry till the wee hours of the night, downing everything from rum to vodka to wine, dancing to everything from rock to bhangra to techno. Action moves to my place - long chats on everything under the sun (or moon!), a long drive on the highway, an early morning snack at the airport cafe and back to end when the oldies start coming out for their walks. 3 hours of sleep and I am up, reading the papers and sipping tea. The crowd awakens, a new addition to the orgy team. And we are off again - this time its a champagne brunch at the Leela Palace. 3 hours of gossip n laughter, 7 loaded plates of food - cheeses, salads, soup, rice n curry, desserts, accompanied by live music and pink champagne, spent in a lovely large room filled with a good crowd, looking out on landscaped gardens. Sleepy, happy, we congregated near the garden, lying quietly in the breeze, sipping coffee. The momentum was dying down. The evening was alone at home, with a good book, sipping tomato juice, feeling sick and happy.
And now its Monday and I am in office, clenching my fists as I read irritating mails or listen to nagging commands.
Sigh.
